Story 147
He Didn’t Unnerve
Baseball fans love Reggie because he had power in reserve and he had spirit or
verve (a fact easy to observe).
Most batters when struck by a ball will unnerve. Not Reggie! He had the nerve to
remain in the batter’s box to homer any curve a pitcher would serve. And this is
why he did deserve ten times that of the highest-paid reserve.
Story 148
Women’s Lib
As children, brothers and sisters are equally called sibs. However, as adults, some
men, now and then, treat women as though they’re still babies wearing bibs,
playing in cribs.
So today women squib for Women’s lib, wanting much more than Adam’s rib.
